Stuck On - ISRAEL NASHVi hälsar en av våra favoriter välkommen tillbaka!ISRAEL NASH gör en europaturne i början av 2024 och när vi fick frågan om vi ville boka honom så var såklart svaret ja!Ni som sett honom live förut vet ju varför...Sedan debuten 2009 har han släppt en mängd album som ständigt tagit honom vidare musikaliskt, i grund och botten är det amerikansk såkallad heartland-rock som drar åt americana, psykedelia, country och en mängd alla genres.Sen har ju karln en röst som få andra och ett supertight band han spelat med länge.Israel är aktuell med nya albumet Ozarker, som behandlar hans rötter tematiskt.Uncut är den enda musikpress som hunnit recensera plattan och där får den 9 av 10.
Nya plattan "Ozarker" från hyllade Texas-via-Missouri artisten Israel Nash släpps den 20 oktober-2023. Tillsammans med producenten Kevin Ratterman (My Morning Jacket, Ray LaMontagne) har Nash skapat en platta som I mångt och mycket är en hyllning till de musikaliska rötterna. Och mer än så, ett album som filosoferar över kärlek och familj, över skönhet och smärta, över det som förenar oss genom bra och dåliga tider. Musikaliskt lutar sig Nash mot den heartland rock som han växte upp med — Petty, Springsteen, Seger — med feta gitarrer och slagkraftiga refränger och med texter som är filmiska samtidigt som de egentligen bara handlar om folk som är som folk är mest. "I think the reason so much of that classic heartland rock and roll endures is because it touches on themes we all feel so deeply: desire, struggle, commitment, escape," says Nash. "As an artist, Im always aspiring to touch as many people as possible, and thats what this music has always represented for me." Nu återvänder Israel Nash och hans band till Skandinavien med ett gäng nya, starka låtar i bagaget. Att addera till alla publikfavoriter från "Barn Doors"-plattan fram till "Topaz"!
Dörrarna till studioscenen öppnar 18:00 och livemusik kan du förvänta dig vid c:a 19:00.
Här nedan kan du läsa mer om vart Israel tänker just nu om sin musik.
Israel Nash may live in the Texas Hill Country, but he’ll always be an Ozarker at heart.
“I was born and raised in small-town Missouri,” Nash reflects. “All the people and the stories and the music that shaped me come from that part of the country, and I could feel it calling back to me on this album.”
Recorded with producer Kevin Ratterman (My Morning Jacket, Ray LaMontagne), Nash’s rousing new collection, Ozarker, is indeed an ode to his roots, but more than that, it’s a meditation on love and family, on the beauty and the pain we pass down through generations, on the ties that bind us through good times and bad. The music here harkens back to the heartland rock that Nash grew up on—Petty, Springsteen, Seger—with larger-than-life guitars and anthemic melodies, and the lyrics are similarly cinematic, painting captivating portraits of everyday men and women doing their best to get by with dignity and self-respect. Some of the characters come directly from Nash’s own family history, others from second-hand accounts, but all share a distinctly Midwestern resilience, their hopes and dreams and triumphs and failures rendered with great tenderness and empathy. It would be easy for Nash to mythologize the place he comes from, to render judgment on the landscape and its people with the benefit of distance and hindsight, but Ozarker instead presents honest, intimate snapshots of its subjects, resisting the urge to romanticize the past and never losing sight of the humanity at the heart of it all.
“I think the reason so much of that classic heartland rock and roll endures is because it touches on themes we all feel so deeply,” says Nash. “Desire, struggle, commitment, escape. As an artist, I’m always aspiring to touch as many people as possible, and that’s what this music has always represented for me.”
The son of a Baptist preacher and an artist, Nash first rose to fame in Europe, where he built a loyal following with a series of critically acclaimed albums that earned him a deal with the renowned Loose Music label. As American audiences began to catch on, Nash left his adopted home of New York City for Dripping Springs, Texas, where he built his own studio on a ranch and began embracing a more spacious, psychedelic sound that landed somewhere between Neil Young and Pink Floyd. Rolling Stone hailed him as a “master of sonic textures,” while MOJO dubbed him a “folk-rock visionary,” and Uncut simply asked, “Who can get enough of music as good as this?”
“Having my own studio for almost a decade now has really helped me grow as an artist,” Nash explains. “The deeper my knowledge got behind the board, the more I realized that I could approach ideas from a lot of different angles, that I didn’t have to restrict myself to any particular genres or sounds.”
Shortly after the death of Tom Petty, though, Nash found himself gravitating back toward the directness and the precision craftsmanship of albums like Full Moon...
